The car circled the rough path on the island until the sun came down a little wearily.
Xu Yuchu wakes up in a daze. What clings to his face is Xiao Chen's strong thigh hidden under the light cloth. Open an eye, Xiao Chen good-looking chin is facing her, visual front, completely have no a silk tired appearance. Xu Yuchu couldn't help but feel annoyed at his poor physical strength. He yawned a little and wanted to sit up as soon as he held up his hand.
"Awake?" Xiao Chen helped her up with her back, "it's far from the apron. Come and have something to eat. " Said to take the lunch box, Xu Yuchu opened a look, it is still steaming shrimp dumplings and Shaomai. She picked up a piece and looked at it in surprise. She said in a soft voice, "it's so exquisite You brought it specially for me? "
"I know you like it, so let the kitchen do a little bit and bring it with you." Xiao Chen lightly answers, the voice just falls, a Shaomai has accurately blocked his lips, he can only open his mouth and swallow the Shaomai whole. One by one, they soon cleaned up the food in the lunch box. Then they looked out of the window. The setting sun had turned into a salivating salted egg yolk, and they seemed to be quietly watching and waiting for them.
"Let's go." Xiao Chen put away the lunch box, took Xu Yuchu's hand and went out. The sea breeze is more and more cool, with the salty taste of sea water and the fragrance of flowers from nowhere. The sound of the waves is getting closer and closer. Xu Yuchu takes a light breath and walks down a low slope behind Xiao Chen. After another turn, a line of white sand appears in front of him.
Xu Yuchu opened his mouth slightly in surprise.
She unconsciously let go of Xiao Chen's hand and ran to the smoke.
Run to the front, take off the shoes and socks, soles immediately spread crisp touch. Xu Yuchu looked down. The sand was so light and thin that she could hardly feel the rough sand. She could not help but move her toes and buried her white feet in the soft sand.
Xiao Chen also walked to her side, stretched out his hand and pointed to the sea surface inlaid with Phnom Penh under the setting sun, and said: "look."
When Xu Yuchu looked up, he saw that the sea was brilliant blue, clear and almost transparent in the afterglow of the sun, just like a huge crystal gem. The distant horizon, where the sky meets, is actually covered with a line of emerald green, reflecting the thin clouds dyed slightly red. It is as beautiful as fairyland.
"Beautiful..." Xu Yuchu murmured, "there is such a beautiful place on the island..."
"Speaking of Some of them found it when they ran out to "explore." Xiao Chen stares at her beautiful side face attentively, only feeling that a heart is as soft as the clouds in the sky. His heart has not been so quiet for a long time.
Time seems to stagnate at this moment. The whole world seems to be left only with him and her, as well as the gentle and noisy sea in front of us.
"Ding Ling Ling." The sudden ringing of the mobile phone broke the peace.
Xiao Chen sighs in his heart, covering Xu Yuchu who is still staring at the sea with his thin shirt on his hand, and sliding open the answer button with one hand.
"He said
Xiao Chen's hand still stays on Xu Yuchu's collar, but people have been fixed in the same place by the news from the receiver.
"Again?"
Xu Yuchu looks back in surprise. She seldom heard Xiao Chen speak in such a worried tone, and then saw Xiao Chen's face become iron blue. He was always calm, but he would show such a look. Xu Yuchu knew that something important must have happened.
"Which hospital is it now?"
Hospital?
Xu Yuchu is busy holding Xiao Chen's trembling hand. The phone hung up, Xiao Chen back to hold her, and her eyes looking at each other, it seems that some hesitant micro open mouth and closed.
"What happened?" Xu Yuchu had never felt such a strong emotion fluctuation in just ten seconds. She asked, while nestling into Xiao Chen's arms, another hand around his side waist, trying to calm his mood.
"Dad's in trouble." Xiao Chen opened his mouth and even his voice trembled: "mom said it's not very good. We're going back right now. "
A few hours ago.
Xiao Guojian closed the last folder, rubbed his sore eyebrows, took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose and threw them aside.
Although he never deliberately thought of it, he was old when he was old. Years are always fair to people, and aging is inevitable.
Xiao Guojian sighed. He still held the wooden glasses legs in his hand, as if he had pinched his seemingly strong but actually fragile little man with the words "Xiao Guojian" and stared at him for a long time.
"Dong Dong." There were two heavy knocks on the door. Before Xiao Guojian could react, the door had been pushed open from the outside. Shen's figure slowly flashed out, and the setting sun outlined a cold outline behind him.
"Here I am. Why, brother, are you still busy? "
"It's almost over." Xiao Guojian moved his finger and subconsciously wanted to cover his glasses with what he had on hand, but he stifled it. He simply arranged his glasses and put them on the table. He stood up and said, "you pinch them very accurately. Come on, sit down."
Senior Colonel Shen went to the tea table and took out a small purple clay pot in the tea cabinet to play with."I said to you, we are all old men. If we still work so hard, just give it to the people under us." Shen squinted at the inscription on the bottom of the purple clay pot and said, "is this new?"
Xiao Guojian was busy filling the big purple clay pot with water. He turned on the switch of the induction cooker and said with a smile, "that's a worthless thing Xiao Chen picked up for me from somewhere years ago. Just play with it."
Senior Colonel Shen gently turned the object in his hand. Obviously, he studied it carefully: "don't be modest, brother. Xiao Chen of your family is so promising. What he gives you is a good thing."
"No, no matter how good it is, I dare not put it here. I don't understand this. Would you like to give me some advice, Lao Shen? " Xiao Guojian said with a smile.
Major Shen did not answer.
The water in the big purple clay pot began to bubble, making a "gududu" sound. Xiao Guojian stares at Shen's side face, who is still staring at the things in his hand. For a moment, the air seems quiet and cold, as if the two people's earnest conversation about the purple clay pot a few seconds ago was just a lively illusion.
No one talks.
It was not until the water boiled that Xiao Guojian got up and went to the tea cupboard as if he had untied the mantra and took out the tea can.
"I don't have any good tea here. You can make do with it."
"No harm." With a smile, Shen Da Xiao put the small purple clay pot back on the tea table. "I don't understand tea, just drink it."
Xiao Guojian opened his eyes, smelled the taste of tea, and frowned slightly: "it seems a little damp..." He leaned over to the top of the cupboard to find new tea.
Focusing on this, he didn't notice at all. Shen's hand moved quickly and dropped a drop of liquid into his own big teacup.
